Great Modern Looking SUV

I was looking at both the CX 30 and the Buick Encore GX AWD ST. I drove the CX-30 as a rental car after my Buick purchase, and I am so glad I chose the Buick. The Mazda interior seemed so dated. It did not have a touch screen, the screen was small, and only a 5 speed transmission caused the car to feel sluggish. The Buick is really fun to drive. I like the option to choose when I want AWD to be turned on, and to turn off the auto shut off. The car has a good road feel to it, plenty of pep for merging into traffic, and above sticker estimates for MPG as well. Buick did a good job with this SUV and it is perfect for the city commute, especially in traffic and parking situations... Love the large screen for the backup camera. I disagree with the professionals rating this car lower than its competitors. It's definitely better than the Mazda and the small SUV's offered by Hyundai and Kia.

Preferred Trim Poor Seats

My preferred trim seat fabric bubbles up after sitting on it especially in the cold weather. They’ve replaced the seat cover 3 times and it’s doing it again since it’s gotten colder. I would be curious how many others are having this issue.

Did not have power lift gate or closing, no cargo cover. The rest is what I wanted.

For the price - what's missing - let the list begin: * why can't the car remain running when parked for long periods of time? The feature was available on previous year models - why not this year? If I had known it would have definitely influenced my decision to buy * why no day time running lights? * why no auto-fold outside mirrors? * why can't GMC include dash camera options as OEM, or at least power port in the headliner area to eliminate dangling power cords of aftermarket dash cameras; and why can't they be easily have 24/7 recording capability? I hate being forced to engage in the climate cult - whynnotnhave drivers to push a button to opt into engine auto shut down at red lights; or auto-engine shut offs when parked. On the plus: for the price and technology it is a nice car but I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED IT GIVEN THE INABILITU TO DISABLE THE AUTOMATIC ENGINE DOWN DOWN FEATURE WHEN PARKED !
